In this episode Kerry and Andrew Skinner explore many elements of the Joseph story. They investigate Joseph's character and what we can learn from that, and they look at what it teaches us about the nature of Jehovah and how we can all work with Him. Kerry also spends time helping us learn about Jehovah/Christ by looking at both Joseph as a symbol of Christ and Judah as symbol, and how God can change us all and how we need to let God change us. Finally, Kerry and Rabbi Jarod Grover discuss the blessings pronounced on the tribes, and they come to a surprising conclusion about Ephraim. In our Patreon content Kerry and Joshua Matson discuss each of the blessings of the tribes and what it means for a Latter-day Saint.

| 0:19.1 | We start out with Dr.rew skinner and myself discussing |
| 0:22.1 | a lot of different elements of the joseph story and then what the next segment is just me talking |
| 0:28.9 | about how we can see the christ changing people and going through some of the details of the story |
| 0:35.3 | and how human it is but also how it teaches us |
| 0:37.6 | about Jehovah or Christ and the symbolism in there. I think you're going to be surprised and |
| 0:43.2 | one love some of the things in there. And then the final segment is just going to blow you |
| 0:49.2 | away. It's with Rabbi Jared Grover, a rabbi from Toronto, whom I asked if he would look at the blessings |
| 0:54.9 | pronounced on the tribe, and then we had a discussion about it, and as a Latter-day Saint, |
| 0:59.1 | you won't believe what he has to say on there. It's fantastic stuff. Before we get going, |
| 1:04.5 | I want to let you know about a couple of opportunities you don't want to miss. We're coming |
| 1:08.6 | up on Holy Week soon. This is something that we really want |
| 1:12.9 | you to emphasize. I know the leaders of the church would love for you to emphasize and draw |
| 1:17.6 | closer to Christ during this week. So we will have special episodes every day of Holy Week, |
| 1:23.7 | helping you to know what you can think about that day, helping you in your worship that day, guiding you to studies, and so on like that. We're going to kick it off with a big Palm Sunday walk. My wife and I have been doing this for years. It gets bigger every year, but we love this. And so this Sunday walk is going to be on Palm Sunday. It's March 29th. It's at 3.30 p.m. |
| 1:44.9 | It's in Linden, Utah, and we'll end at the Linden Temple, which will just be a month away from being |
| 1:51.5 | dedicated at that time. In any case, we're going to end at the Linnon Temple because the Holy Week |
| 1:56.4 | or the Palm Sunday, the original trample entry ends at a temple. Christ ends there. |
| 2:00.5 | And we're starting at a stake center that's right there. You can get details about this at out of the dust.org. So if you've got out of the dust.org and you click on the link, there's a Holy Week resources link or tab up there. That's where you'll find information about the Palm Sunday walk. And that's where you'll find some readings and other resources that are available to you for each day of the week. |
| 2:22.3 | I also want to give you, it's really we're kind of almost running out of time, and I don't want you to miss the fantastic information you can get on a cruise I'm doing with Steve Harper, where he and I are going to lecture. |
